Art. 964j A. Principle

1 Undertakings whose seat, head office or principal place of business is located in Switzerland must comply with obligations of due diligence in the supply chain and report thereon if:

1.
they place in free circulation or process in Switzerland minerals containing tin, tantalum, tungsten or gold or metals from conflict-affected and high-risk areas; or
2.
they offer products or services in relation to which there is a reasonable suspicion that they have been manufactured or provided using child labour.

2 The Federal Council shall specify annual import quantities of minerals and metals below which an undertaking is exempt from the due diligence and reporting obligation.

3 It shall specify the requirements by which small and medium-sized undertakings and undertakings with low child labour risks are not obliged to verify whether there is a reasonable suspicion of child labour.

4 It shall specify the requirements by which undertakings are exempt from the due diligence and reporting obligations if they comply with equivalent internationally recognised regulations, such as the principles laid down by the OECD in particular.
